Overview

The Escolanía del Escorial is a renowned musical institution founded in 1974 by the Augustinian monks of the Monastery of San Lorenzo of El Escorial.This children's choir is composed of a select group of forty children, known as escolanos, whose ages range from nine to seventeen years old.The escolanos are selected through rigorous tests that evaluate their musical skills, and those who pass receive a scholarship that covers their education and musical training, as well as the opportunity to live music traveling around the world.On the occasion of their 50th anniversary, the Escolanía will soon release a new album to commemorate a historic legacy.
